=====

The ranking of the written test scores was displayed using a huge holographic transparent window in the very middle of the academy!

It's so huge that you can see it wherever you are in the academy!

Of course Eve, Alec, Curtis, Adelle, Aoi, and Blake could see it as well.

As a matter of fact, they even went to the center, or the plaza that is styled like a park, of the academy just to see it better!

"Wow, that's the highest score in the written test that I got my whole life..."

Blake mumbled after seeing his score in the ranking, he's clearly delighted at the result he got.

"Heh, looks like I win this time."

Meanwhile, Curtis provocatively said to Alec.

"Oh come on, you already said that 10 times now..."

Alec replied, slightly annoyed at Curtis' smug face.

"Curtis, you're not the one to talk, heh."

Then with a scoff, Adelle intervened.

Her words made Curtis frown, and Alec was pleased to see that.

"You're literally just one point above me."

Curtis rebutted.

"So? Didn't change the fact that you're below me."

But Adelle didn't take his words seriously, pissing of Curtis.

"Adelle, stop it."

But Aoi stopped Adelle's provocations as it will be noisy again if she and Curtis argues with each other.

"Fine, winners should understand how losers' feels after an overwhelming defeat afterall."

Adelle said.

"You–!"

"Shut up."

Curtis was about to shout at Adelle, but Eve cut him midway, and he of course, obeyed Eve's order.

"Adelle, if you're talking about overwhelming defeat, then all of us are defeated that way."

Eve then stated.

The others frowned after hearing her words, and their eyes went toward a certain individual.

A certain individual who has this calm and bored expression on his face while looking at the ranking result like he already anticipated it.

Raven Obadiah, the 1st in the ranking with Eve.

Raven got a perfect score, so did Eve.

But Raven finished answering all the questions in just an hour, while it took Eve 3 hours!

Eve's time was considered as overwhelmingly fast, but Raven's was just incomprehensible!

"He wasn't even actively paying attention to classes..."

Adelle mumbled in a weak voice.

"Well, he's always in the library so I already predicted that he's smart... I just didn't know he's at that level."

Aoi replied with a weak voice too.

Eve was frowning and she have this weird look in her eyes while looking at Raven.

"Raven is just too amazing, and he probably still have something to show us."

Blake then said, you can feel amazement and respect in his voice when he said that.

"I think so too..."

And Alec agreed to Blake's statement.

"That shit's name is beside Eve's..."

While Curtis silently grumbled as he glared Raven.

It's not just them, when the written test ranking was released. Students, especially freshmen, started gathering to the plaza of the academy just to take a good look of it.

And all of them was surprised to see an unexpected name in the 1st place.

It's also natural that all of their attention was focused on Raven.

And while they are looking at Raven, they saw him shrug his shoulders.

"Hm, just as expected, 1st place is the best spot for me."

Then Raven casually said, most students heard him causing weird whisperings about him to be made!

"He's such a show off..."

Aoi muttered while looking at Raven.

"Well, it's Raven."

And Adelle replied with a carefree expression.

"DON'T BE SO SMUG, IT'S OBVIOUS THAT YOU CHEATED!!!"

And not long after their short exchange of words, a student in the crowd yelled that to Raven.

"I knew this was gonna happen..."

Adelle mumbled.

"Well, whoever that idiot is... They will regret their words soon."

Eve replied to Adelle.

"We're already here so might as well watch the entertainment."

Then Eve added with a rare mischievous smile of her.

"You should really stop enjoying watching others argue."

Aoi said to Eve.

And Eve shrugged her shoulders as a response.

"Who doesn't want to see an idiot spouting bullshits then getting embarrassed in the end?"

Eve said.

"Well, I'll watch it anyway."

"Me too, it's what Eve want to see afterall."

"Haaa..."

Adelle, Curtis, and Aoi responded respectively to Eve.

Alec is just laughing awkwardly while Blake didn't take his eyes off the person who just shouted.

Anyway, whisperings about doubts of Raven cheating in the written test spreaded across the crowd after that declaration just now.

Raven then turned around to look at the one who shouted bullshit about him.

Then he saw a girl student, a petite one and beautiful one with black eyes and brown hair.

She was smirking as if she just said something incredible.

Then with a calm face, Raven pointed his index finger in his right hand to the girl.

And he opened his mouth.

"Are you stupid?"

Raven asked the girl.

"Wha... What did you say?!"

The girl got surprised at Raven's words, then she exclaimed furiously after some seconds.

"I asked you if you're stupid, are you deaf too?"

But Raven just replied to her sarcastically.

The girl frowned and opened her mouth once again.

"I'm not stupid! It's just really obvious that you cheated, there's no way a low rank like you will get a score that high!"

The girl yelled to the point that angry veins appeared on her neck.

"Heh."

Though, Raven smirked and just scoffed at the her remarks.

"What's so funny?"

The girl asked Raven while glaring at him.

"You said I cheated right?"

Then Raven asked back a question of his own as a reply.

"Of course."

And the girl immediately responded back with confidence.

After a short silence in the area, Raven once again spoke.

"Then aren't I more amazing?"

Raven stated, the girl frowned in confusion and was about to say something.

But Raven continued talking.

"Being able to cheat under Professor Kendy's surveillance and even the academy didn't figure it out."

"If I really did cheat, don't I deserve the 1st place more after not being caught by the so called best hero academy in the human domain?"

Raven said with a carefree expression and small hand gestures.

"That..."

The girl was surprised at Raven's words that are just too convincing, also she's being nervous after seeing Raven's calm attitude like he wasn't worried at all.

"He's right..."

"Raven's words have a point."

"Yeah... Cheating under Professor Kendy's observation and the academy's checking system is basically absurd just to even think about."

"So if Raven did really pull that off, then he's more amazing."

Whisperings like that was heard from the crowd, and almost all of them are agreeing to Raven's statement.

"Wow, he's really fucking great at using sophistry."

Adelle mumbled after hearing the students around agreeing to Raven.

"Yeah, his words were fallacious but it sounded so plausible that it makes me agree with him too..."

Aoi then replied to Adelle as she looks at Raven with a complicated face.

"He's just a manipulative bitch."

Eve said while looking at Raven.

Then she pointed at the girl that Raven ia arguing with.

"Well, that girl is just a bitch and nothing else."

Eve said.

"Wow, I kinda feel bad for the girl because of this group..."

Alec then mumbled secretly.

"Raven really doesn't back down in arguments, do you guys think he already predicted this will happen?"

Blake then asked the group.

"Don't know, don't care."

Curtis replied.

"It's possible."

Alec then followed, and the girls nodded their heads, agreeing to Alec's answer.

Anyway, shifting their attention back to the girl Raven is arguing with.

The group can see her being frustrated as beads of sweat was forming on her forehead.

She's nervous and she's starting to get a bit red from embarrassment.

Then the group looked at Raven.

Raven, looking at the girl, pointed at her once again.

"Tell Sean that he should've come at me personally if he wants a revenge."

Raven said and the girl's eyes widened and she flinched after hearing his words.

Then with a sly smile...

"Well, Sean is ranked lower that me in the written test so maybe he's not just as smart as me to think of that."

Raven provocatively declared that in front of everyone!

"""Oh!"""

Audible surprised gasps were heard after that, and the girl seems to be angry!

Not that Raven mind as he started walking away with a smirk on his face.

"This is fun."

Raven mumbled.
